While I'm still trying to get the ball rolling on the overall look of this site. Let's just get started into the site.
The URL Demonfuzz comes from a favorite album of mine.
The name Gypsies, Gods, Beggars, Poets represents some of the natures of guitarists:
The Gypsy needs to travel, and live an unconventional way of life.
The God is one that is to be worshiped, idealized, or followed.
The Beggar lives by asking others for money.
The Poet is blessed with the perception and expression of verse.
To keep myself humble I think of these roles and how they apply to myself as a musician. Sometimes I am the beggar trying to survive. Sometimes I am the gypsy longing for the road. Sometimes I am the poet reaching for the deeper meaning. Sometimes I am the god full of ego and pride.
I'm sure there are more roles that are traits of guitarists specifically. These roles are what I use to judge other guitarists, and I think about them whenever I'm researching some of the people who came before me.
Try to ask yourself, What role do you play?
